About this file
This Statement of Work (SOW) details the installation of an Oil Water Separator (OWS) system at Hush House No. 2, Mountain Home Air Force Base. The project requires a contractor to design, fabricate, install, and commission a 300 GPM OWS system that will handle wastewater from aircraft maintenance operations, ensuring compliance with EPA, DoD, and NPDES regulations. The system must achieve >99% hydrocarbon removal efficiency, with key specifications including corrosion-resistant tank construction, integrated sensors for oil accumulation detection, automatic sludge removal, and vapor control measures.
The SOW is structured in four phases: (1) Pre-Construction Planning & Submittals, involving design drawings and product specifications, (2) Site Preparation, including geotechnical surveys and excavation, (3) System Installation, covering tank, piping, and electrical components, and (4) Commissioning & Testing, which includes hydrostatic leak testing, flow capacity validation, and environmental compliance verification. The project has specific technical requirements conforming to UFC, EPA, NPDES, FAR, NFPA, and NEC standards. Contractor personnel must meet specific qualifications, including English fluency and base access requirements, with work to be completed Monday to Friday, 0700-1630 MST, excluding federal holidays.

STATEMENT OF WORK CONSTRUCTION
PROJECT: Installation of Oil Water Separator System
LOCATION: Hush House No. 2, Mountain Home AFB
NEXGEN WT: 14118044
DATE: July 28, 2025
SCOPE OF WORK
General:
The contractor shall furnish all personnel, equipment, supervision, and materials necessary to design, fabricate, install, and commission a complete and functional Oil Water Separator (OWS) system that will be fully integrated into the existing facility infrastructure. This system must handle wastewater from aircraft maintenance operations, ensuring compliance with EPA, DoD, and NPDES regulations. Updating this facility to meet these standards will allow a more efficient and continuous way to test jets and their engines by reducing maintenance intervals between uses and reducing possible environmental hazards.
EXECUTION PLAN

English fluently. Contract personnel shall present a neat appearance and be easily identified as a contract employee. The contractor shall obtain base identification, and vehicle passes for all employees who make frequent visits to or perform work on Mountain Home AFB in accordance with the current installation access/entry requirements. Contractor personnel are required to wear or prominently display installation identification while visiting or performing work on the installation. The contractor shall not employ persons for work on this contract, identified to the contractor by the CO as a potential threat to the health, safety, security, general well-being, or operational mission of the installation and its population. Each employee will be easily identified by wearing distinctive clothing bearing the name of the company or by wearing appropriate badges that contain
Page | 3 of 6 the company name and employee name(s). The contractor shall not employ any person who is an employee of the Government, if employing that person would create a conflict of interest. The contractor is cautioned that off-duty active military personnel hired under this contract may be subject to permanent change of station, change in duty hours, or deployment. Military Reservists and National Guard members may be subject to recall to active duty. The abrupt absence of these personnel could adversely affect the service provider’s ability to perform; however, their absence at any time shall not constitute an excuse for non-performance under this contract.
